  • Patent number: 10689985
    Abstract: A turbine blade for a turbomachine such as a turboprop or a turbojet, the blade including a root, a vane carried by the root and extending in a spanwise direction, ending at a tip, the vane including a pressure-side wall and a suction-side wall spaced apart from each other, and at least one duct configured to collect cooling air at the root and to make same flow in the vane in order to cool same; holes and/or slots made in the walls of same in order to discharge the cooling air out of the vane; an upper inner cavity located at the tip of the vane in order to cool same; and wherein at least one of the ducts directly supplies the upper cavity with cooling air collected in the root.

  • Patent number: 9700856
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a stirring blade for attachment to a support plate, and to a combination of a stirring blade and of a support plate, for use in a mixing vat of a mixing apparatus. The support plate is attached to a driving element of the mixing apparatus. The stirring blade has an elongate section for mixing a content of the vat. The stirring blade also defines an aperture for attachment of the stirring blade to the support plate. The aperture is configured so that raising the stirring blade away from the bottom surface of the vat causes an upper surface of the stirring blade to abut on a stop of the support plate, and raising the driving element and the support plate away from the bottom of the vat allows the stirring blade to pivot downward about the support plate for easy removal of the stirring blade.

  • Patent number: 9642495
    Abstract: A whisk includes a handle, a shaft and flexible wires. The handle has a cavity with a spiral internal track to engage and rotate the shaft with up and down motion of the handle. A collar is slidably mounted with a friction fit on the shaft. The flexible wires are coupled to the collar and to the second end of the shaft. Movement of the collar on the shaft changes the shape of the flexible wires. At the second end of the shaft, the flexible wires extend downwardly and then radially outwardly to lie in a plane and finally are bent toward the slidably mounted collar. A foot is rotatably mounted on the second end of the shaft and includes a bearing surface. The bearing surface extends from the second end of the shaft and beyond the defined plane within a clearance of coincidence with the defined plane.
